USER MANUAL 20301 LGB

• This model may only be used with the operating system designed for it.

• Use only switched mode power supply units and transformers that are designed for your local power system.

• This locomotive must never be supplied with power from more than one power pack.

• Pay close attention to the safety notes in the instructions for your operating system.

• Not for children under the age of 15.

• WARNING! Sharp edges and points required for operation.

• WARNING! This product contains magnets. Swallowing more than one magnet may cause death in certain circumstances. If necessary, see a doctor immediately. Important Notes

• The operating instructions are a component part of the product and must therefore be kept in a safe place as well as included with the product, if the latter is given to someone else.

• The warranty card included with this product specifies the warranty conditions.

• Please see your authorized LGB dealer for repairs or spare parts.

• Disposing: www.maerklin.com/en/imprint.html Functions

• This model is designed for operation on LGB two-rail DC systems with conventio- nal LGB DC train controllers or power packs (DC, 0 - 24 volts).

The model is programmed with locomotive address 03 for use with the LGB Multi Train System (DCC). The locomotive is automatically recognized in operation with mfx.

• Volume can be changed for the sound effects

• Mfx technology for the Mobile Station/Central Station. Name set at the factory: Stadtwerke Lok1

• The functions can be activated only in parallel. Serial activation of the functions is not possible (Please note here the instructions for your controller). General Note to Avoid Electromagnetic Interference: A permanent, flawless wheel-rail contact is required in order to guarantee operation for which a model is designed. Do not make any changes to current-conducting parts. Mode of Operation Switch This locomotive has a mode of operation switch. Pos. 0 Locomotive stopped without current Pos. 1 Locomotive motor, lighting, and sound turned on Pos. 2 & 3 Same as Pos. 1 Sound The bell and horn can be activated with the LGB sound activation magnet (17050) in- cluded with the locomotive. The activation magnet can be clipped into place between the ties of most LGB track sections. The magnet is positioned to the side under the LGB logo cast into the plastic cover. Place the magnet on one side to activate the horn when the locomotive passes over this spot. The bell will sound when the magnet is placed on the other side.9 Multi-Protocol Operation Analog Operation This decoder can also be operated on analog layouts or areas of track that are analog. The decoder recognizes alternating current (DC) and automatically adapts to the analog track voltage. All functions that were set under mfx or DCC for analog operation are active (see Digital Operation). The built-in sound functions come from the factory inactive for analog operation. Digital Operation The decoders are multi-protocol decoders. These decoders can be used under the following digital protocols: mfx or DCC. The digital protocol with the most possibilities is the highest order digital protocol. The sequence of digital protocols in descending order is: Priority 1: mfx; Priority 2: DCC; Priority 3: DC Note: Digital protocols can influence each other. For trouble-free operation, we re- commend deactivating those digital protocols not needed by using CV 50. Deactivate unneeded digital protocols at this CV if your controller supports this function. If two or more digital protocols are recognized in the track, the decoder automatically takes on the highest order digital protocol, example: mfx/DCC; the decoder takes on the mfx digital protocol (see previous table). Note: Please note that not all functions are possible in all digital protocols. Several settings for functions, which are supposed to be active in analog operation, can be done under mfx and DCC. Notes on digital operation

• The operating instructions for your central unit will give you exact procedures for setting the different parameters.

• The values set at the factory have been selected for mfx in order to guarantee the best possible running characteristics. Adjustments may have to be made for other operating systems. mfx Protocol Addresses

• No address is required; each decoder is given a one-time, unique identifier (UID).

• The decoder automatically registers itself on a Central Station or a Mobile Station with its UID-identifier. Programming

• The characteristics can be programmed using the graphic screen on the Central Station or also partially with the Mobile Station.

• All of the Configuration Variables (CV) can be read and programmed repeatedly.

• The programming can be done either on the main track or the programming track.

• The default settings (factory settings) can be produced repeatedly.

• 14/28 or 126 speed levels can be set. As delivered from the factory, the locomotive is programmed for 28 speed levels. If your locomotive controller is set for 14 speed levels, then the locomotive must be reprogrammed (CV 29, Bit 1).

• Function mapping: Functions can be assigned to any of the function but- tons with the help of the 60212 Central Station (with limitations) and with the 60213/60214/60215 Central Station (See help section in the Central Station).

• See the CV description for the DCC protocol for additional information. DCC Protocol Addresses

• Short address – long address – multiple unit address

• Address range: 1 – 127 for short address and multiple unit address, 1 – 10239 for long address

• Every address can be programmed manually.

• Short or long address is selected by means of CV 29 (Bit 5).

• A multiple unit address that is being used deactivates the standard address. Programming

The characteristics can be changed repeatedly using the Configuration Variables (CV).

• The CV numbers and the CV values are entered directly.

• The CVs can be read and programmed repeatedly. (Programming is done on the programming track.)

• The CVs can be programmed in any order desired. (PoM - Programming can be done on the main track). PoM is not possible with CVs CV 1, 17, 18, and 29. PoM must be supported by your central controller (Please see the description for this unit.).

• The default settings (factory settings) can be produced repeatedly.

• 14 or 28/126 speed levels can be set.

• All of the functions can be controlled according to the function mapping (see CV description).

• See the CV description for the DCC protocol for additional information. We recommend that in general programming should be done on the programming track.10 SERVICE Lubrication Oil each of the axle bearings now and then with a drop of Märklin oil (7149).
